| africa, southern | The geographical area of africa comprising angola, botswana, lesotho, malawi, mozambique, namibia, south africa, swaziland, zambia, and zimbabwe. It includes what was formerly called south-west africa or german southwest africa but it was terminated in 1966 by a united nations resolution. (12 Dec 1998) |
| blot, southern | A common test for checking for a match between DNA molecules. DNA fragments are separated by agarose gel electrophoresis, transferred (blotted) onto membrane filters, and hybridised with complementary radiolabelled probes. The aim is to detect specific base sequenceswith the probes. Lest all of this sound esoteric, note that in the television series The X Files a Southern blot was done (in this case, to learn if some alien virus genome had been integrated into a person's genome). The Southern blot is named after its inventor, the British biologist M.E. Southern. There is also a Northern blot and a Western blot. (12 Dec 1998) |
| blotting, southern | A method (first developed by e.m. Southern) for detection of DNA that has been electrophoretically separated and immobilised by blotting on nitrocellulose or other type of paper or nylon membrane. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Southern | M.E., 20th century British biologist. See: Southern blot analysis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| southern blot | A technique used for searching for a specific DNA fragment. The process is as follows: 1. separate DNA fragments by gel electrophoresis 2. Change pH of gel to basic, thus allowing disruption of H-bonds 3. blot gel with nitrocellulose paper 4. Heat paper so as to fix DNA fragments 5. probe with labelled messenger RNA or cDNA 6. wash Complementary mRNA/cDNA fragments will have hybridised. (09 Oct 1997) |
| Southern blot analysis | A procedure to separate and identify DNA sequences; DNA fragments are separated by electrophoresis on an agarose gel, transferred (blotted) onto a nitrocellulose or nylon membrane, and hybridised with complementary (labelled) nucleic acid probes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Southern blotting | <molecular biology, procedure> General term for the transfer of protein, RNA or DNA molecules from a relatively thick acrylamide or agarose gel or to a paper like membrane (usually nylon or nitrocellulose) by capilliarity or an electric field, preserving the spatial arrangment. Once on the membrane, the molecules are immobilised, typically by baking or by ultra violet irradiation and can then be detected at high sensitivity by hybridisation (in the case of DNA & RNA) or antibody labelling (in the case of protein). RNA blots are called Northern blots, DNA blots, Southern, protein blots, Western. (18 Nov 1997) |
| models, economic | Statistical models of the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services, as well as of financial considerations. For the application of statistics to the testing and quantifying of economic theories models, econometric is available. (12 Dec 1998) |
| socio-economic | Relating to social or economic factors or to a combination of both social and economic factors. (05 Dec 1998) |
| inflation, economic | An increase in the volume of money and credit relative to available goods resulting in a substantial and continuing rise in the general price level. (12 Dec 1998) |
| economic botany | <study> The study of plants and plant products that can be used for profit, such as in the field of agriculture or medicine. (13 Nov 1997) |
| economic coefficient | In growth and cultivation of microorganisms, the ratio of the mass produced to the substrate consumed. (05 Mar 2000) |
| economic competition | The effort of two or more parties to secure the business of a third party by offering, usually under fair or equitable rules of business practice, the most favourable terms. (12 Dec 1998) |
| economic entomology | <study> The study of insects which are able to cause economic losses by destroying plants or animals that are commercially valuable. (09 Oct 1997) |
